I'm trying to execute an update statement in a stored procedure that includes a variable for a column and a variable for a conditional constraint. For example I want to execute the following UPDATE, but using variables:
Update table set flagcode = 'A' where Field1 < 100
the field flagcode is a varchar and the field Field1 is an int
This basically how I have my code set up:
declare @flag as varchar(20)
declare @lowrange as varchar(20)
set @flag = 'A'
set @thefield = 'Field1'
exec('update table set Flagcode = ' + @flag + ' where '+@thefield+' < 100')
I get the error:
"Server: Msg 207, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Invalid column name 'A'."
--This works fine UPDATE tblTmpLA SET MT1 = 2222 / 1000 FROM tblTmpLA WHERE ID = 1
This is the way I want to do it but
UPDATE tblTmpLA SET @vname = 2222 / 1000 FROM tblTmpLA WHERE ID = 1
I get the error that Disallowed implicit conversion from datatype 'int' to datatype 'varchar' I guess that the variable does not compile as the text that it holds or so it seems.
I want to put this code inside a WHILE loop where the @vname will change on each iteration.
I am trying to use two variables in my SQL statement to query an access database and then pass the results to a datagrid. Nothing shows up in my datagrid. I think that the syntax on my SQL statement is wrong. I am really not sure how to embed the variables, especially since there are two. I really need help with this, it is for work. The code is posted below. Thanks. Sub Search_Click( s as Object, e as eventArgs) Dim conLibrary As OleDbConnectionDim Category As StringDim Search_Field As StringDim dstResults As DataSetDim dadResults As OledbDataAdapterDim dtblBooks As DataTable conLibrary = New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=D:ewpsychiatrylibrarydb.mdb")conLibrary.Open Category = ddlSearch.SelectedItem.textSearch_Field = txtSearch.textdadResults = New OledbDataAdapter("Select * From rec WHERE '"& Category"' "=" '"&Search_Field"'", conLibrary)dstResults = New Dataset()dadResults.Fill(dstResults, "Table1") dgrdResult.DataSource = dstResults.Tables(0).DefaultView dgrdResult.DataBind()conLibrary.closeServer.Transfer("results.aspx") end Sub
The below code connects to a Teradata table and downloads the record set into my excel spreadsheet. No problem. The issue is: using a WHERE clause in the SQL statementI have a form with three variables on the form, (one is a date field and requires a range; (1) DateFrom to DateTo), (2) StatusX and (3) ErrorTypeX. I need to use any combination of these variables to retrieve the desired record set. i.e. variables 1 and 2, or 2 and 3, or 1 and 3 etc. or none of the variables which would return all records.how to set up the variables in the SQL statement?
Dim conn As ADODB.Connection Set conn = New ADODB.Connection Dim recset As ADODB.Recordset Set recset = New ADODB.Recordset Dim cmdSQLData As ADODB.Command Set cmdSQLData = New ADODB.Command Dim RowCnt, FieldCnt As Integer
Hi Guys, I am trying to manipulate an SQL statement based on the return from a menu with auto postback enabled.Simply I am working with dates, so I will declare variables for today, next week, last week and so on.How do I then use this in the SQL? I assumed that if I declared the following Dim my_today As String = Format(Date.Now(), "dd/MMM/yyyy")Then in the SQL I used SELECT * FROM my_table item_date = @my_todayI would get a result, but I get an error. What is the right way to do this? Many thanksSteve

I have a cursor that goes through a table with the names of all the database in my server. So for each fetch, the cursor gets the name of a database and assign it to a variable, @databaseName, and try to do some queries from that database by using the command "USE @databaseName". But "USE" doesn't take the variable @databaseName; it is expecting a database name (i.e. USE master).
Here is my code:
Declare @databaseName varchar(50) Declare c_getDatabaseName CURSOR for SELECT name from tblDatabases OPEN c_getDatabaseName FETCH NEXT from c_getDatabaseName into @databaseName While @@FETCH_STATUS = 0

I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly. My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys. So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys. I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit. I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it. I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates. When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template. This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value. So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors. I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode. I make my changes and then select "update." When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing. The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work. When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again. Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People]. My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list. If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database. It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed. If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can. This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go. I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian
I am new to scripting in general and I've run into an issue when attempting to write a VB variable to a database table in SQL Express. I am trying to record the value of the variable to the db, but it does not appear that the value is being passed to SQL. If I hard code the values in the SQL statement it works fine. Can someone explain what I'm doing wrong accomplish this? My code is below. Thanks in advance. file.aspx <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:SqlConnectionString %>" SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Table]" InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [Table] (field1, field2) VALUES (& variable1 &, & variable2 &);" > </asp:SqlDataSource> file.aspx.vb Protected Sub Button_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button.Click Dim variable1 As String = FileUpload.FileName Dim variable2 As String = Date.Now Dim path As String = Server.MapPath("~/directory/) If FileUpload.HasFile = True Then Try SqlDataSource.Insert() FileUpload.PostedFile.SaveAs(path & _ FileUpload.FileName) End Try
SELECT * FROM Cards WHERE CASE @Type = 1111 THEN CardType = 1111 ELSE CardType = 2222 END
GO
I know that the part after WHERE is wrong. But what I would like to achieve is this:
if the @type variable equals 1111 then get alla the rows with that value in the CardType-column. The same if @type = 2222, and if @type is any other value, then choose all rows regardles of the CardType value.
Ok I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".
Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.
I'm trying to create a stored procedure with a dynamic update statement depending on the variables received. I receive a sql error "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'WHERE'." although the variable, @tempvar, appears correct. Any ideas? ---- DECLARE @tempvar varchar(1025), @SolutionDetail varchar(1000), @hours varchar(12), @id int
if @SolutionDetail <> " " set @tempvar = "SolutionDetail = " + "'" +@SolutionDetail + "'"
IF @hours <> " " set @tempVar = @tempvar + ", hours = " + "'" + @hours +"'"
UPDATE WorkOrderTbl SET @tempvar WHERE workorderid = @id
Hi gurus,I just started to look at a very slow-running SQL statementgenerated by an application (Siebel). I spooled the SQL from theapplication, replaced the bind variables by their values, and tunedfrom the Query Analyser. But after awhile, I realized that thestatement using bind variables and the same statement using the valuesinstead of the bind variables often have completely differentexecution plans! Is that normal? Can someone tell me how the SQLServer treats bind variables. Don't worry about being too technical,I'm an Oracle DBA/developer.ThanxDaniel
I'm getting the error "No recepient is specified".
I have set up a dataflow from a select statement into a record set, then have that dataflow point to a ForEach group with a mail task in it. I have set up variables for the username and subjectline. So in the mail task I have no value in the To: line because I specify an "http://www.sqlis.com/59.aspx">http://www.sqlis.com/59.aspx exactly.
I couldn't figure out how to included screen shots.
i was tasked to created an UPDATE statement for 6 tables , i would like to update 4 columns within the 6 tables , they all contains the same column names. the table gets its information from the source table, however the data that is transferd to the 6 tables are sometimes incorrect , i need to write a UPDATE statement that will automatically correct the data. the Update statement should also contact a where clause
the columns are [No] , [Salesperson Code], [Country Code] and [Country Name]
i was thinking of doing
Update [tablename] SET [No] = CASE WHEN [No] ='AF01' THEN 'Country Code' = 'ZA7' AND 'Country Name' = 'South Africa' ELSE 'Null' END
Hello,I am trying to update records in my database from excel data using vbaeditor within excel.In order to launch a query, I use SQL langage in ADO as follwing:------------------------------------------------------------Dim adoConn As ADODB.ConnectionDim adoRs As ADODB.RecordsetDim sConn As StringDim sSql As StringDim sOutput As StringsConn = "DSN=MS Access Database;" & _"DBQ=MyDatabasePath;" & _"DefaultDir=MyPathDirectory;" & _"DriverId=25;FIL=MS Access;MaxBufferSize=2048;PageTimeout=5;" &_"PWD=xxxxxx;UID=admin;"ID, A, B C.. are my table fieldssSql = "SELECT ID, `A`, B, `C being a date`, D, E, `F`, `H`, I, J,`K`, L" & _" FROM MyTblName" & _" WHERE (`A`='MyA')" & _" AND (`C`>{ts '" & Format(Date, "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss") & "'})"& _" ORDER BY `C` DESC"Set adoConn = New ADODB.ConnectionadoConn.Open sConnSet adoRs = New ADODB.RecordsetadoRs.Open Source:=sSql, _ActiveConnection:=adoConnadoRs.MoveFirstSheets("Sheet1").Range("a2").CopyFromRecordset adoRsSet adoRs = NothingSet adoConn = Nothing---------------------------------------------------------------Does Anyone know How I can use the UPDATE, DELETE INSERT SQL statementsin this environement? Copying SQL statements from access does not workas I would have to reference Access Object in my project which I do notwant if I can avoid. Ideally I would like to use only ADO system andSQL approach.Thank you very muchNono
It appears to update only the first qualifying row. The trace shows a row count of one when there are multiple qualifying rows in the table. This problem does not exist in JDBC 2000.
HiI'm using the SQL 2000 table variable to hold 2 different fact sets.I'm declaring the variable @CurrentTable and inserting into it using aSELECT statement with no problems.I'm leaving certain of the columns null in order to later update themwith the PK.Problem is in the UPDATE syntax I'm usingUPDATE @CurrentTableSET ManagerTitle = (select mgrs.pos_title from mgrs) wheremgrs.pos_num = @CurrentTable.MgrPosNumIt is insisting I declare the @CurrentTable variable when I try to useit in the where clause.Is it simply out-of-scope or am I really doing something foolish?Andrew
I'm attempting to update a variable using the Execute SQL task, I've read a lot of posts on this and seems reasonably simple but obviously not. The first time I ran it the variable was updated correctly, I then manually changed the variable value and since then it doesn't work.
I have a task with the following properties;
Resultset: SingleRow
SQLStatement: SELECT MAX(Player_Daily_Data_Pull_Date) as 'PlayerDaily' From Job_Control
On the resultset tab I have the resultsetname = PlayerDailyand the variable I want to update.
The variable has a type of datatime and it's scope is the container that I'm running the sql task within.
Helo, I'm using a simple scripting task to update the value of a variable:
Public Sub Main() Dim EndeJahr As String EndeJahr = InputBox("Text") Dts.Variables("EndYear").Value = EndeJahr MsgBox(Dts.Variables("EndYear").Value) Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success End Sub
The Package is working fine and the message box shows the actual value.
My problem is that when I change the of value of my variable, the value of variable is not changing, when I restart my package!!! What's the problem? any ideas?
Be patient with me I am a relative newbie to all this.
Trying to develop a very simple package to update data in daily chunks from one server to another. Now my first step was to obtain the last date in my currenttable which I have a SQL task as my first operation. This brings back the last date for which I have data stored, all fine and dandy. I am then taking the single row result set, datetime data type, and feeding this to a variable.
My problem is my variable does not update, it just sits there and unusually for a variable, doesn't vary at all. Now we have an old hand with SSIS who tells me I'm doing nothing wrong and is equally puzzled. I have tried all datatype combinations and I'm getting nowhere fast.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The server is running:
Windows 2003 R2 SP1 SQL Server 2005 SP1
The server has also been configured as the DNS server.
I'm writing a fairly involved stored procedure. In this Stored Procedure, I have an update statement, followed by a select statement. The results of the select statement should be effected by the previous update statement, but its not. When the stored procedure is finish, the update statement seemed to have worked though, so it is working.
I suspect I need something, like a GO statement, but that doesnt seem to work for a stored procedure. Can anyone offer some assistance?
Is there any way I can use a variable from my code behind file in the UpdateCommand of a sqlDataSource? I have tried <%$ strUserGuid %>and<% strUserGuid %> any help appreciated.Thanks Dave
Hi, figured out where I was going wrong in my post just prior, but isthere ANY way I can assign several variables to then use them in anUpdate statement, for example (this does not work):ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.UpdateXmlWF(@varWO varchar(50))ASDECLARE @varCust VARCHAR(50)SELECT @varCust = (SELECT Customer FROM tblWorkOrdersWHERE WorkOrder=@varWO)DECLARE @varAssy VARCHAR(50)SELECT @varAssy=(SELECT Assy FROM tblWorkOrdersWHERE WorkOrder=@varWO)UPDATE statement here using declared variables...I can set one @variable but not multiple. Any clues? kinda new tothis.Thanks,Kathy
I run the following statement and it will not update beyond 7 million plus rows and I have about 38 million to complete. I keep checking updated row counts and after 1/2 day it's still the same so I know something is wrong because it was rolling through no problem when I initiated it. I need to complete ASAP so it's adding to my frustration. The 'Acct_Num_CH' field is an encrypted field (fyi).
SET rowcount 10000 UPDATE [dbo].[CC_Info_T] SET [Acct_Num_CH] = 'ayIWt6C8sgimC6t61EJ9d8BB3+bfIZ8v' WHERE [Acct_Num_CH] IS NOT NULL WHILE @@ROWCOUNT > 0 BEGIN SET rowcount 10000 UPDATE [dbo].[CC_Info_T] SET [Acct_Num_CH] = 'ayIWt6C8sgimC6t61EJ9d8BB3+bfIZ8v' WHERE [Acct_Num_CH] IS NOT NULL END SET rowcount 0
